Choose the preferred access level from the pull-down list. Your options
include:
• Disable: All stations/clients can request association with an SSID in your
Access/One Network. This means that the ACL will not be checked when
a new station attempts to authenticate.
• Enable: All stations/clients are assigned a permission status based on their
MAC address. If the MAC address of the station attempting to gain access
is set to Deny, it will not be allowed to associate with the network. If the
MAC address is set to Allow, or not configured in the ACL, the station will
be allowed network access.
• Strict: Only stations assigned with Allow permissions in the ACL are
granted access to the network, regardless of encryption settings. In
addition, if the entry is configured for an encryption key, the station is
also required to match that key before gaining access. If no ACL entry
exists for a MAC address, it will not be allowed to associate with the
network. The ACL accepts multiple levels of authentication concurrently
so that stations with or without encryption (or shared key authentication)
can be admitted.
To add a new station, click on the Add New Station button to reveal the Add
New Station window.

Changing the ACL mode for wireless stations requires a reboot.
A reboot is also required when adding or deleting ACL entries
at the network level (though not at the module level).
